Looking for recommendations. Sunscreen or sunblock? Spray, lotion, or cream? I know Australian Gold is pediatrician and dermatologist recommended, but there are quite a few options. Also, several of them include bronzers which I don't think I want. Please share!

I love this from Neutrogena.

It also comes in adult sensitive skin version and adult sheer dry touch version.

I would not use Neutrogena!!! My son got stitches on his face once. The plastic surgeon told me to put on sunscreen for the next 6 months even when it wasn’t sunny so the skin around the scar wouldn’t discolor. I put Neutrogena suntan lotion on EVERY day! When I went back to the doctor after 6 months the doctor asked me if I had been putting lotion on every day and I said of course! He then asked which brand I had been using, and I told him Neutrogena. When I asked him why he wanted to know, he told me that Neutrogena doesn’t work and to use any other brand. The skin by the scar discolored because it was as if I hadn’t put on lotion!

I would only use mineral based sunscreen with safe and natural ingredients. You'd be shocked at how many sunscreens use ingredients that can actually cause the cancer you're trying to prevent Sad
